Editorial Design Studio

François Havegeer and Sacha Léopold have been running the editorial design studio Syndicat since 2012. In 2015, they took the plunge and created their own publishing house: Empire. It was there that the magazine Faire was born, a bimonthly printed magazine dealing with issues related to graphic design.

Whether designing books or magazines, creating visual identities, organizing exhibitions, or exploring printing techniques, their field of expertise is extremely vast. They enjoy working on atypical or art-related subjects, collaborating with contemporary artists and art centers, but also publications, monographs, and artists' books.
